our hair DOES look very similar, haha. and i'm only about 2 weeks behind you. but i think yours looks awesome already, mama! you have way less loose hairs than i do. and your ends are way tighter. my ends look exactly the same on the bottom layers, i think the top layers will eventually do the same thing. i call them doo doo balls, haha. <3 love love love!

Hi Hun! I do not advise that people dye their hair black for numerous reasons....but most especially if they have dreads. Here is why. Black is a very harsh color and true black only works on a select group of people with a certain complexion or look. Some people can rock it well, most can not and end up very quickly tired or bored with it. Which brings us to the next reason. It is the WORST color to get rid of. It does fade, but not enough to go away. It takes alot of chemicals and damage to get it out and leaves the hair in a rainbow of different colors...all of which are ugly! I have had clients who went through 4-5 sessions with me using very harsh stripper and they still had traces of black. But, they also had shades of orange and baby poop yellow...which is what pulling black out leaves behind. It is also a bitch to keep up! Because it is soooooo dark, roots show up very quick and if your naturel color is light it shows very badly against the black and can look grey. Looking at your pictures, I am stumped as to why you would want black...? You are very pretty, and I think black would honestly be horrible for you and take away from your lovely skin and beautiful eyes. If you insist, I think you will regret it...but if you must...most boxed black dyes are alike. So there is no one that I would recommend....black is black, regardless of the maker. Good luck Sweetie...but I REALLY hope you will reconsider! Much love <3
